[D] There's not a [A] soul out on the [D] street [G] No footprints in the [A] fallen [D] snow
The only moving [A] thing I [D] see [A] Is the curl of chimney smoke
[G] Frost melts on the
[C#] windowpanes [D] And the house is getting warm
From the fires [G] crackling [D] flames [A] On a quiet Christmas [D] morn
I [G]
[A] [D] walked out [A] in the silent [D] world [G] No engines [A] roared, no sirens [D] whined
No teasing boys [A] chased squealing [D] [A] girls No noisy school [D] bells [A] [G] chimed
No one raced off to work [D] Through the din of honking horns
And there was truly [G] peace [D] on earth [A] On a quiet Christmas [D] morn
[G] On a [A] quiet Christmas [D] morn The
[G] child was in [D] a stable [A] born
[E] [A]
[D] And shepherds heard [A] the baby [Bm] cry [A] Saw [G] a new [D] star in [Em] the sky
[D] On [A] a quiet Christmas [D] morn

The hustle stops [A] and the [D] bustle [G] stills On this [A] day all [D] is calm
The giving [A] kindness and [D] good will [A]
Soothes like a healing [D] balm
[G] The hardest heart is softened [D] By the blessing that was born
When the gift of grace [G] was offered [D] [A] On a quiet Christmas [D] morn
